I confirmed with mike @ sqlalchemy. calling `dispose()` will not explicitly `close()` connections that are already checked out. It just gets rid of the the connection pool instance, so you have fresh connections in the child processes-- the pre-fork connections themselves will be garbage collected out. You shouldn't need to call "close()" even through the connection will still be open in your scope.
